Vegan and refined sugar free! Full of good fats and beta carotene! What else can you expect from a dessert? Plus, it makes for such a pretty presentation.

Oh, did I mention the main ingredients are a vegetable and a fruit (because avocados are technically fruits)? That's right. The orange layer is made from sweet potatoes (very similar to my Sweet Potato Frosting) and the chocolate layer is made from avocados.

To make this, you'll need a food processor or high-speed blender ( I used my trusty Vitamix).

Blend all ingredients in blender. Start small with the stevia and add more drops as you go. Refrigerate separately since the sweet potato layer will be warm.

Also, for a darker chocolate layer, you can add more cacao powder but we enjoyed this as is - a milkier chocolate.

ENJOY!

I really like the Navitas brand. It's a lighter, realer tasting cacao than what you normally buy in the grocery store. You can purchase Navitas Naturals Organic Cacao Powder
here. There is even a 25% off coupon to clip on Amazon!

Oh my word this was sooooo delicious! Both puddings were very rich & sweet so we ate out of our small, "special" desert cups; the kids both LOVED it and I think my husband wanted to lick his cup too but held himself back, lol.

A Sweet Welcome

I'm rethinking the way we use herbs in the kitchen and in daily life. It's not always a little dash of this or a sprig of that. All recipes on this blog are dairy and gluten-free. Pour yourself a lush cup of tea and please enjoy Sweet Roots!
